To keep track of ongoing terminal sessions, we now have a sort-of
traditional /var/run/utmp file, like other Unix systems.
Unlike other Unix systems however, ours is of course JSON. :^)
The /bin/utmpupdate program is used to update the file, which is
not writable by regular user accounts. This helper program is
set-GID "utmp".
LibWeb currently has no test suite or program. Let's change that :^)
test-web is mostly a copy of test-js, but modified for LibWeb.
test-web imports both LibJS/Tests/test-common.js and
LibWeb/Test/test-common.js
LibWeb's suite provides the ability to specify the page to load,
what to do before the page is loaded, and what to do after it's
loaded.
This also provides a test of document.doctype and its close sibling
document.compatMode.
Currently, this isn't added to Lagom because of CodeGenerators.
This patch removes the setuid-root flag from the KeyboardSettings GUI
application and adds back the old "keymap" program.
It doesn't feel very safe and sound to have a GUI program runnable
as setuid-root, so in the next patch I'll be making KeyboardSettings
call out to the "keymap" program to do its bidding.
The "WebContent" service provides a very restricted instance of LibWeb
running as an unprivileged user account. This will be used to implement
process separation in Browser, among other things.
This first cut of the service only spawns a single WebContent process
when someone connects to /tmp/portal/webcontent. We will soon switch
this over to spawning a new process for each connection.
Since this feature is very immature, we'll be bringing it up inside of
Demos/WebView as a separate demo program. Eventually this will become
a reusable widget that anyone can embed and easily get out-of-process
web content in their GUI.
This is pretty, pretty cool! :^)
We were getting a little overly memey in some places, so let's scale
things back to business-casual.
Informal language is fine in comments, commits and debug logs,
but let's keep the runtime nice and presentable. :^)
